SOME POINTS IN PRESIDENT sEMMEs' ADDRESS
At the opening session OF the American Bar As
ISOLATION at Saratoga yesterday the president Mr..
Thos. j. Semmes, OF New orleans, In his address,
reviewed the changes in legislative, state and Fed
eral law during the past year. In regard to the
Interstate commerce law he said:
"The Interpretation OF the long and Short-haui
section seems TO have given the most trouble TO
those charged with the execution or the law, as
well as those who are expected to obey Ii. To de-
termine what are substantially similar circum-
stances and conditions is no less difficult than the
definition OF special cases In which the Commits
sion may authorize O common carrier to charge
less for longer than for shorter distances"
